In honor of the “Friendlies” games that the USA Basketball Team is playing in China as a warmup to the Beijing Olympics, Nike has releases three special sneakers for three of the top players – LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Carmelo Anthony.

LeBron’s Zoom Soldier II PE features a Chinese character print design on the heel, around the midsole and fades toward the toe. A lasered lion is features on the heel tab. On the shoes is also the Chinese characters which translate into “Land” and LeBron’s jersey number. The special box for these shoes also features the lion, the Chinese characters that are on the shoe, and his number.

Kobe’s Mamba Hyperdunk, which previewed last month, comes in Team USA colors and features a snake design on the toe. On the special box are snakes, his number and the Chinese characters meaning “Solidarity,” “A long, long time” and Kobe’s jersey number.
